Wait! Wait!

Don’t Tell Me …


I had tickets for something tonight (good seats! Off to the side so we were a little obstructed by speakers, but third row!)


What was it? Hmmm …

Yep. Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me, my very very very favorite NPR show, was in Pittsburgh tonight. I went to see the show with my mom and aunt Suz. My face hurts from laughing for two solid hours.


Yep. We had Mo (in a very lime green blazer), Roxanne (in a SERIOUS dress) and Tom (who left a light on ... somewhere). Our Governor was there in person to play “Not My Job” and was pretty decent! A good time was had by all.

I forgot to take a picture of it, but I had all three panelists and both hosts (Peter and Carl) sign my program. I did get goaded (by Aunt Suz) into getting my picture taken instead of letting RT have all the fun.


Yep. It’s me with the Rock Star of NPR, Mr. Carl Kassel! All of the panelists were super nice and hung around to sign autographs and talk with the people. It was much fun!

I have YPF photos sitting around just waiting to see the light of day. I’ll try to get my sorry self motivated tomorrow.

oh, I love that show too! I always miss it on air, so I download the podcasts to listen to later. Even much later, they're still funny!

Wait, Mo? Is that Mo Rocca?! I have a sort of secret crush on him. I just love his slight lisp. Now I'm sorry I missed this!
